AKEELAH AND THE BEE
Bu haftasonu evde seyrettigimiz guzel bir film. Guney Los Angeles'ta varosta yasayan 11 yasindaki Afrikan-Amerikan bir kiz cocugunun oykusu. Babasi gozunun onunde vurulmus, calismak ve 4 cocuguna bakmak zorunda olan annesinin ilgi gostermedigi, kucuk abisi sokak cetesiyle birlikte olan mutsuz ama cok zeki bir cocuk Akeelah. Okul mudurunun Akeelah'nin spelling (heceleme) konusundaki yetenegini kesfetmesiyle baslayan, Akeelah'yi Ulusal Spelling Bee yarismasina kadar goturen bir basari oykusu. (Spelling Bee :Amerika'da gayet onem verilen imla yarismasi/heceleme yarismasi. Burada yasayanlar bilir kelimeler yazildigi gibi okunmuyor, soylendigi gibi yazilmiyor. Bu sebeple bircok Amerikali bile Ingilizce kelimeleri hecelemekte, harf harf kodlamakta zorluk ceker.) Okul cagindaki cocuklari olanlara, birlikte seyretmelerini tavsiye edecegim cok guzel bir film.
IMDB' nin sitesinden aldigim Ingilizce hikayesi asagida.
Eleven year-old Akeelah Anderson's life is not easy: her father is dead, her mom ignores her, her brother runs with the local gangbangers. She's smart, but her environment threatens to strangle her aspirations. Responding to a threat by her school's principal, Akeelah participates in a spelling bee to avoid detention for her many absences. Much to her surprise and embarrassment, she wins. Her principal asks her to seek coaching from an English professor named Dr. Larabee for the more prestigious regional bee. As the possibility of making it all the way to the Scripps National Spelling Bee looms, Akeelah could provide her community with someone to rally around and be proud of -- but only if she can overcome her insecurities and her distracting home life. She also must get past Dr. Larabee's demons, and a field of more experienced and privileged fellow spellers
